Katja van den Bogaert

In my Art Studio, I work intuitively while painting; adding, layering and blending, until the seen and the unseen harmonize with my spirit and resonate with my soul.

The inspiration for my work is nature and my environment.  In the Netherlands, nature is all around me and the beauty, and sometimes rawness is my start for creating. I aim to create a deeper connection to nature; for me, water is a very healing element.  My creative process is not inhibited by my conscious thought; I create and follow my heartbeat. I desire to create paintings that engage my viewers.  If you look longer, see, and feel, there is a layered story within my compositions; a world deep beyond the surface.
